Backslash

backslash (or Zarina, as she's known on chat) is a handler that hails from Texas. When she wasn't writing characters on SotF, she obtained a degree in Post-Mordem Artistic Funk Rock Of 1966-67 Without Bass, and double-majored in some kind of field having to do with bones as well. Thanks to her strong ties to the restless dead, she has been guaranteed a place of honor in the skeleton wars.

Because of her strong Texan roots, she also is quite adept at horse whispering, and once tamed a horse via AIM chat by spam-posting Sherlock Gifs with INTERNALLY SCREAMING as a caption.

Life and Times
Born to Marie Anne Luthwaffe and John Smith, Zarina came into existence on a bright Tuesday morning. As the eleventh child of Marie Anne, she learned quickly to master the talent of eating food really fast before her stupid siblings could. She found the best method of eating was to slaughter the animal with her bare hands and swallow as much as she could with one hand while duelling whichever sibling dared interrupt her feastings. This life skill is evident in her writing, though she finds it hard to type while her keyboard isn't smeared with either fresh boar or the blood of her enemies.

When she was seventeen, Zarina claims that she was abducted by the Xgrylthnzar nation from the fifth ring of Plaxxot. There they showed her the compassion and sensitivity that also would later appear in her roleplay posts. She attributes most of her teaching to Hlhrrhr, the son of Mrkatzs III, whom she had a brief but intense affair with. When she returned to earth a changed and refreshed woman, she found that she was oddly attracted to Paprika and had absorbed the nation's war chant as her version of casual laughter.

Just before joining SotF, Zarina was a twelve time Grammy nominee for her single "Fuck off you creepy bastard." Recorded in her dorm room after she caught a lizard sniffing around her closet, she promptly was cut a record deal and achieved moderate success in the indie circuit before hitting it big in the underground hip hop ring. However, she found fame a tedious and boring affair, and soon joined an internet roleplay in which teenagers are brutally murdered to unwind.
